     This salad is light and refreshing. I add ham, turkey  or leftover pork roast to make it a meal.

    Green Salad with Orange Vinaigrette

    1 teaspoon orange zest

    1/4 cup fresh orange juice

    2 tablespoons lemon juice

    1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

    6 tablespoons olive oil

    Whisk together orange zest, orange juice, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Gradually whisk in olive oil until well blended.

    Try This Twist! Grapefruit Vinaigrette: Omit orange zest and lemon juice. Substitute grapefruit juice for orange juice. Proceed as directed, whisking in 1 Tbsp. honey with juice. Serve over green salad, grilled fish, baked chicken, or steamed green beans.

    Salad

    1 head Bibb lettuce, torn

    2 cups torn green leaf lettuce

    2 green onions, chopped

    1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion

    Combine Bibb lettuce, leaf lettuce, green onions, and red onion in a large bowl. Drizzle with Orange Vinaigrette, and toss to coat.
